LR Clowncar beatdown

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Disclaimer brought to you by Slow Jams then an introduction to my fellow CO Q’s and the theme of the beatdown, Accountability, was explained and what that means to me. Followed by some in cadence exercises and stretching.
THE THANG: Mosey to bus loop where Slow Jams called curb 7’s. Starting with 1 curb dip, bearcrawl out to next curb for 6 incline merkins, crabwalk back. So on and so forth.
Cubbie was next up. He provided his insights on our group and where accountability plays its part. Mosey to pull up bars for partner station work. 1st station – 10 pull ups, 2nd station – 25 WW1 sit-ups, 3rd station – 25 leg lifts, 4th station – 25 v-ups, 5th station – 25 lbc, 6th station – 25 dragon flutters. Following the completion of all stations we then took a mosey to front entrance hill.
Skipper then took the helm. He zeroed in on a stoicism based message that aligned with accountability in your personal actions. We then proceeded with 5’s from light pole to light pole with lunges and jump squats. Final mosey to the band lot where Half Shell finished with a final message on how our accountability plays an important role in keeping him on track. He thanked us with 50 yard sprints and exercises that summarized the entire workout. 25 CDD’s, 25 Merkins, 25 BBS, 25 Superman’s, 25 Squats, 25 calf raises.
MARY: no time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: bethel men’s, stuff the bus, tortoise and hare, blood drive
COT: we all got an opportunity to share what was weighing on our hearts and minds. Because after all, we are men and whether we like it or not, we can’t fix everything on our own. Don’t be ashamed to be vulnerable and reach out for help!

D-day at the Coaches Box

Leave a comment

Today’s workout was about perspective. History provides the best perspective and on 6/6 we were reflecting on D-Day.

Started with a mosey towards the entrance of the high-school.

Stopped and did

20 SSH IC
10 Windmills IC

Mosey to the bottom of the hill right at the entrance.

To celebrate, honor, and remember the 80th anniversary of D-Day we executed the following:

80 seconds work
2:40 minutes recovery

80 HR Merkins
80 Squats
80 4ct Flutters
80Diamond Merkins
80 Calf Raises
80 LBCs

So the idea was all Pax do as many reps as possible in the 80 seconds then the “recovery” run was back to the top of the hill where we each did 6 burpees and then get back to the bottom. Any excess time left of the 2:40 is your “rest”.

The Pax loved this and looking at time we got through 7 rounds of this before breaking back towards COT.

On the way we stopped by the band lot and did a 80 yard bear crawl followed by 44 SSH to close us out.

One last note on perspective…. It’s easy for us to get caught up in the day to day but take a step back, reflect on how we all got here and the opportunities each day brings because of the sacrifices of others.

Thanks to Warning Track for the opportunity!

:punch: :punch: :pray:
